Just chillin'

Isn't it funny how kids can be completely obsessed with a toy and play with it non-stop for days or weeks, and then just stop? And then months go by where they barely even acknowledge the toy, until all of sudden, it's back!

What? You mean that's only my kid that does that? Oh well... one more quality that makes her extra special then. (Yeah, I am such a mom!)

For Annabel, her latest "obsession" is with her personal ball pit. Awhile back, we bought a couple of those plastic party tubs from Costco. They're big tubs that you fill with ice and drinks for your outdoor parties. We filled one with her toys, and the other with those balls that you see in ball pits at your local Chuck E Cheese. When this was new, Annabel loved it! Played in it all the time...

Here she is, happy as a clam last August.

Then, for months on end, the ball tub sat untouched in the corner of the living room. Until...

The other night, Annabel decided to take a chillaxing lounge in the ball tub. I have more photos, which I'll save for another post. But I wanted to definitely share this one because I love her feet and the whole pose just makes me laugh. What a goof!

She's been lounging in her little personal ball pit pretty much every day since. We'll see how long it lasts!

And, since this post will technically go live on Sunday...

Happy Lunar New Year! It's the Year of the Tiger, which is the year that Chris and I were born in, so hopefully that means it'll be a good one.

Cheers,
